Very rare ‘blue’ coerulea form of this great species. Large ice-blue blooms with bluish flush on petals and dark violet blue markings on the front lobe of the lip. Bloom time - spring to summer. Plants from this same batch have bloomed out with the beautiful correct color. Intermediate.

Medium size hot-to-warm growing epiphyte. Long-lasting fragrant flowers that open up very flat. Rich lavender color, especially the lip and column. It is found along low-elevation rivers, in chosen locations, over a 4 million square kilometer area. Often growing on branches out over the water , where the plants benefit form the rising moisture, but also brighter light reflected up from the water. We are excited that we now are able to easily grow this species, using our “empty-pot method”. Limited.

Warscewiczii is my favorite Cattleya species. Two top-quality cultivars have been used here. Hoping for whites, but we should be realistic and remember that crossing 2 albas often results in pink offspring. Either way though, these should be superior flowers - with great form and large size.
